The British indie production company Black and Blue films is set to team with PerfectFeatures for the supernatural thriller, WHISPER.
PerfectFeatures, headed by veteran Brit actress Lysette Anthony, is said to be ‘overwhelmed’ by the interest Black and Blue has shown in their debut feature. WHISPER, set to be helmed by Terrence Gross, is poised to be the latest in a long line of indie successes from Black and Blue Films. The production company cleaned up at last year’s British Horror Film Awards with DEVIL’S PLAYGROUND, and have teamed with a huge array of homegrown talent, such as Ray Winstone, Dexter Fletcher, and Danny Dyer.
Johnathan Sothcott, Black and Blue’s pioneering director has voiced his excitement in teaming with Anthony, who is best know for her role in Woody Allen’s HUSBANDS AND WIVES.
“We are delighted to be partnering with Lysette and her business partner Rachel Chatterjee for Whisper,’ says Sothcott. ‘They have identified and secured a genuinely excellent project that we are looking forward to bringing to the screen and we’re thrilled that they chose Black and Blue to help them with their feature debut. Lysette has been one of my favourite actresses for a long time and I’m especially thrilled that she’s going to be working with us.”
WHISPER focuses on the terrifying consequences of experimenting with Electronic Voice Phenomena to talk to the dead. Shooting begins September 2011.
